[00:15.56]Old Reilly stole a stallion
[00:36.84]But they caught him and they brought him back
[00:44.55]And they laid him down on the jailhouse ground
[00:50.54]With an iron chain around his neck.
[01:00.01]Old reilly's daughter got a message
[01:09.33]That her father was to hang.
[01:17.99]She rode by night and came by morning
[01:23.92]With gold and silver in her hand.
[01:31.81]When the judge he saw Reilly's daughter
[01:38.15]His old eyes deepened in his head,
[01:44.94]Sayin':"Gold will never free your father,
[01:53.69]The price, my dear, is you instead."
[02:01.64]"Oh I'm as good as dead," cried Reilly,
[02:11.21]"It's only you that he does crave
[02:19.41]And my skin will surely crawl if he touches you at all.
[02:24.62]Get on your horse and ride away."
[02:31.88]"Oh father you will surely die
[02:40.67]If I dont take the chance and try
[02:46.30]To pay the price and not take your advice.
[02:50.56]For that reason I will have to stay."
[02:58.70]The gallows' shadows shook the evening,
[03:06.55]In the night a hound dog bayed,
[03:11.16]In the night the grounds were groanin,
[03:18.07]In the night the price was paid.
[03:24.01]The next morning she had awoken
[03:33.69]She found out that the judge had never spoken.
[03:41.57]She saw that hangin' branch abandoned,
[03:48.16]She saw her father's body broken.
[03:57.48]These be seven curses on a judge so cruel:
[04:02.64]That one doctor cannot save him,
[04:13.88]That two healers cannot heal him,
[04:19.44]And that three eyes cannot see him.
[04:25.67]That four ears cannot hear him,
[04:39.29]That five walls cannot hide him,
[04:47.08]That six diggers cannot bury him,
[04:54.22]And that seven deaths shall never kill him.
